The Men of the Tay and the Women of the Tay will each be featured in the annual Spring Concert coming in the second week of June.
For the Men, the Monday, June 8th concert will mark their sixth annual concert. The one hour of music will include all pieces not heard at any performance in previous years. There are both some rollicking tunes such as “A-Roving” or “What shall we do with the Drunken Sailor.” These will be in complete contrast to settings of Robert Frost’s “The Pasture” and “With One Dream.” Along the way the audience will be entertained with traditional favourites such as “Take Me Out to the Ball Game” and “The Sidewalks of New York.”
For the Women, the Wednesday, June 10th concert marks their end of their first season as a chorus. They will be presenting a wide ranging program of songs with both spiritual and spirited styles including “An Irish Blessing”,”African Alleluia”, “Gershwin for Girls” and a selection of hits from Broadway called “Leading Ladies.” There is a chance that you just might hear the traditional 50’s sound as the girl’s rock out tunes and also perform highlights from “Sister Act.”
Both concerts begin at 7:00 PM and are being held at St. James the Apostle Anglican Church in Perth. There is no charge to attend the concerts however a freewill donation may be made to assist with the costs of the choir and church’s ministry programs.
